Please chance me and match me for any better colleges.

The “better” colleges for accounting are the ones which you can afford without going into a ton of debt and which have a good track record of students qualifying for their CPA on the first try. I assume a program close to home (if you still have young children) is also critical… you don’t want to be chewing up family time with a long commute, correct? Where in Mass do you live?

That’s correct. I live outside of Boston. I’m basically looking for full time on-campus programs as it helps me know many other things rather online programs. Since most of the colleges have hybrid option, I think twice a week commute should not be problem.
